After settling inside the City of Zentris, the Allied Tribes spent the next few days preparing for the war that was about to come.
The warriors would leave the city during the day in order to chop down trees, which they would use to make spears and arrows.
The blacksmiths were also hard at work, forging weapons and other works of metal for everyone.
The women were assigned to harvest and process the fish that were caught by the magical net during the day. They used various methods to preserve them—like drying and smoking—to increase their food reserves.
The children who were old enough to help were tasked with delivering the food to the warriors when it was time for them to eat.
Everyone was busy, including Ethan and Lily, who were under Sebastian’s strict tutelage.
